I'm the oldest of 2. I have a little brother. I had an older brother but he died before I was born from a horrible flu.
My DH is the youngest of 3 boys and a surprise at that. His mother suffered 7 miscarriages and wanted a family so terribly. She was an only child and wanted to be a mother since she could remember. She got her wish by adopting 2 wonderful boys, then surprise! She was on bed rest for 3 mos. w/ him. He barely survived his first year.
